Technical Information
Only the best Grenache grapes are selected for this wine. The grapes undergo maceration for 3 to 6 hours with their skin to give the must its characteristic rosé colour. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature between 15 and 16ºC for 15-18 days in order to develop its elegant aromas to their full potential.
